SALSA!

We made our snack today and boy was it tasty! 

Here are the ingredients we used: 
Roma tomatoes (about 5) 
1/2 yellow onion
2 cloves garlic
A "bunch" of cilantro
Juice of 1 lime
salt and pepper to taste. 
I was planning to add a jalapeno from my garden, but I forgot to bring one, so this recipe is mild.


First we cut tomatoes into quarters - yes, I did let them cut with a sharp knife, carefully supervised. We still have all of our fingers!

Then the smelly strong onion!

And garlic.

Then the squeezing of the lime. Great fine motor skills practice!!

It helps if you scrunch up your face while you squeeze.




And then we tasted lime pieces. Tart and tasty!

Before we "Ninja-ed" it!

And after. It took less than a minute to blend it together.

And then we ate it with chips for snack. :)
